Philosophy Minor
The Department of Philosophy proposes the addition of a minor in
Philosophy.
On page 120 after the material outlining the requirements for a
major in philosophy, add:
A minor in philosophy consists of 18 hours in philosophy as
follows: 3 hours at the 100 level, 250, 252 and nine more
hours at the 300 level or above.
Rationale: The option of a minor would encourage students to do
some systematic work in philosophy as a field of related interest
in cases where the requirements of a full major would be
prohibitive.
